These little pastry muffins filled with applesauce are like a cross between apple pie and apple cake. They are perfect for a sweet breakfast or an afternoon snack. I like to serve them warm, fresh from the oven.

Homemade applesauce is easy to make and so much better than the stuff you buy at the store. Plus, when you make it yourself you can control how much sugar is added.

This gingerbread can come in the form of cupcakes, mini cupcakes, or a 9×13 loaf. It is yummy plain but I love the addition of the cream cheese frosting.

Huevos rancheros is a popular Mexican dish consisting of fried eggs on top of lightly-fried corn tortillas, all smothered in cooked salsa. My family’s version of this Mexican breakfast incorporates warmed homemade corn tortillas, chunks of chicken, black beans, fried eggs, salsa verde and cilantro.

This is such an easy dessert and a great way to use up pie crust scraps for the garnish. Sugar cookies would also be a great topper if you don’t have any pie crust handy. I like making an assortment so that everyone can have their favorite and so you can take advantage of all of the fresh fruits of summer.

For an easy 4th of July breakfast, top the pancakes of your choice with strawberries, homemade whipped cream and blueberries for a red, white and blue treat.

Most kids like Sausage and Egg McMuffins from McDonald’s so this sausage and egg sandwich is an easy sell for breakfast. Making them at home is easier than you think and a whole lot better for you and your family. I like making the sausage using ground chicken or turkey.

This sausage can be formed into patties or links for a breakfast sandwich, or even cooked as ground sausage to be used in a breakfast casserole. The brown sugar is optional but I like how sweet plays with spicy.

These muffins are a great source of fiber, protein and vitamins with the oats, nuts and bananas. I like making them in miniature so that they are just the right size for my son.

When compared to many other muffins, these ones are actually pretty low in butter and sugar. I like making them in miniature because they are bite-sized and easy for my 1 1/2-year old son to eat.
